Alexander Alvarado and Jeison Chalá, on DT Santiago Escobar’s list to reinforce the U. Católica de Chile

Alexander Alvarado and Jeison Chalá joined the Colombian coach Santiago Escobar’s requests to reinforce the U. Católica de Chile, thinking about this year’s Copa Libertadores. The directive of the Santiago de Chile team is analyzing the profiles of the Ecuadorian extremes, the newspaper publishes AS in its web version of Latin America.

Alvarado (22 years old), former coach of Aucas and appears with the Ecuadorian U-20 team that conquered the South American and third place in the World Cup in Poland -both in 2019-, plays for Orlando City SC of the MLS and his rights sports cars are priced at $ 1,200,000.

Chalá, 27 years old and directed by Escobar at the Catholic University of Quito, belongs to Vélez Sarsfield of Argentina and his pass is valued at $ 400,000. The amounts make the difference when deciding by whom they will seek their transfer.

The university team still lacks some incorporations and in recent days efforts have been made to close the end that Escobar needs. In that sense, at first Chalá appeared, but also AS Chile could know that the Colombian coach is seduced by Alvarado “, indicates the digital medium.

Who is closer to get there?

At the moment, the U has not made any specific offer for either of the two players, but conversations are progressing for Chalá, which belongs to Godoy Cruz’s records. This negotiation is accepted and shared by Escobar, but if he had to choose, he would go for Alvarado.

Yellow Factor

Why is Chalá taking advantage of Alvarado? For a budgetary issue. Luis Roggiero, sports manager, works in signings with a budget close to $ 2 million and it is difficult for him to fulfill Escobar’s two wishes: Alvarado as a winger and Paraguayan Luis Amarilla (before Liga de Quito) as a center forward.

Both the manager and the coach believe that Amarilla is precisely the nine that the team needs and, for the same reason, they know that in this operation money would be allocated that would make the arrival of Alvarado unlikely, so they work at the same time at Chalá . (D)
